During the summer and autumn of 1981, a series of suspicious deaths was uncovered at the nursing home in Orkdal, Sør-Trøndelag. When questioned by police, Arnfinn Nesset initially confessed to the murders of 27 patients.




Arnfinn Neseet worked as a head-nurse at a nursing home.  He peculiarly gave his patients a muscle relaxing drug that poisoned their body leading to fatal deaths.

He was sentenced for 21 years as that is the maximum punishable time frame allowed by the Norway government.


 
Even strange being that he was released after 12 years only on basis of improved behavior and is living at an undisclosed location with a new name.
